I am presently brickwalled by a "Nathaniel Hays" of SC. I can confirm my 4th GGrandafther as William Hays, married to Martha Hamilton. they arrived in Saline County, Missouri in 1815-1816. There is also a contemporary Hugh Hays in that vicinity. My bet is a relationship bewteen them. Though it is said Nathaniel Hays died inthe RW, I cannot find him (yet) in the SC Continental Line rosters. Perhaps he was an Over-the-Mountain man? Perhaps fought at Kings Mountain. My LIndsey line also originated in SC, in Spartanburg. Any chance we relate on either line?
